"Alabama is sucking wind in so many ways," Flynt said on the state's failure to progress under Gov. Robert Bentley.

"Nobody takes the Democratic Party seriously (in Alabama)," Flynt said as the party has struggled to find its footing while the State House is controlled by a Republican supermajority.

"I would say all the political instincts would say he will lose," Flynt said of Democratic gubernatorial candidate Parker Griffith, whose biggest liability, Flynt said, was the fact that he's running as a Democrat.

Flynt also said he thinks House Speaker Mike Hubbard will be indicted, but not convicted, in the corruption investigation ongoing in the State House and that the new photo ID law is the latest iteration of the poll tax in disenfranchising voters.

sadandmad: I'd say he pretty well nailed it.

cottonrags: Give the man a Pulitzer for fiction. Certainly his view points are straight out of the Hilary Clinton campaign agenda. Nutty old man too.

Ian the Scott: Wayne Flynt has always seen things as they truly are, and is a truth teller. Lots of Alabamians would rather not hear the truth. Kudos to Professor Flynt. We need many more like him.

mr8tiger: Dude still thinks this is 1960's Alabama! It ain't! His reasons for objecting to the voter ID law are laughable! The voter ID law is like the Tuskegee syphilis experiment? Flynt lives in la-la land!

GreenOnions55: Nailed it Mr. Flynt.

aahum: Never been a fan of yours Mr. Flynt but you have got it figured out!

debbyg: Good old, Wayne. Great historian and story teller, but still a Kennedy/LBJ Democrat.

JoeLee: He's an independent, sureeeeeee he is.....

Funny how he doesn't attribute a damn bit of the labor situation in Alabama to Obama et al.

orangekillr: Who still listens to this old goat? He is just another old Kennedy- LBJ - Mcgovern liberal and he needs to go rock on a porch somewhere... I have heard this guy speak on many issues and the liberal always comes out.

Just like most old college professors, old and liberal... not very independent..

D.E.: The guy makes sense. However, those in Alabama will not listen or take him seriously. But I suspect that has something to do with the lack of education in my home state. Bottom of the barrel and it shows by the people we elect, i.e. Moore, Hubbard.

bpblazer: Dr. Flynt bless his heart is a typical lib /pretend socialist who through perserverance and hard work became a successful man. I congratulate him for his status and prominence.

Yet, he is the type of person who thinks those who come from a similar background as he are stupid and helpless and cannot make it without the Government taking control of their lives and other's lives.

Example: I would bet you dimes to doughnuts that Dr. Flynt would say that because over 80% of Washington DC 2nd graders cannot read-not at the second grade level- but cannot READ-that it is because

A. Not enough is being spent by government schools

B. It's capitalism's fault

instead of

A. It's the parents fault

B. It's the government school's fault

I am amazed that people like Dr. Flynt are driven by a failed ideology.
